Postcards for Choo Choo Grandma

STOP FALLING, AMERICA!

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), “Every second, an older adult (65+) falls.” Falling is the number one cause of preventable injuries in the United States.

If you or your loved ones and friends are worried about falling, this book of 170 original quirky and humorous postcards, created by a loving son to save his elderly mother from falling, will inspire and motivate you to walk slowly and watch your step to:

NOT FALL.

Safety bonus: WAYS TO PREVENT FALLING

With his attorney mom as his role model, Phil Andreen was a trial lawyer for 40 years, serving as a Navy lawyer (JAG); a public defender; a solo practitioner representing headline murder cases, NFL players and CIF (governs California high school sports); and Pasadena (CA) Assistant City Attorney for two decades (handling more than 500 trip and fall cases). A postcard irony: Phil was a letter carrier for three summers during law school. A 'national expert' (Seattle Times), Phil was a national speaker on trip and fall issues for the Arbor Day Foundation and attorney organizations across the country. Along the way he served as a judge pro tem, an adjunct law professor and a legal newspaper reporter. Now retired, Phil plays a gutsy trombone in top Southern California Dixieland bands. Phil and his teacher wife, Carol, have a son and a daughter.
